Description
Delicious Thai Cucumber Salad with Chicken You’ll Crave
Ingredients
Scale
- 1.5 cups shredded chicken
- 1/4 cup crunchy peanut butter
- 1 tablespoon fresh lime juice
- 1 tablespoon rice vinegar
- 1 tablespoon low-sodium soy sauce or tamari
- 1 tablespoon honey
- 2 teaspoons toasted sesame oil
- 1 clove garlic, minced
- 1–2 tablespoons water or coconut milk
- chili crisp
- toasted sesame seeds
Instructions
- Slice the Cucumbers: Use a mandolin or a sharp kitchen knife to slice the cucumbers into uniform, thin slices. Lay them in a single layer between paper towels, roll them up, and set aside to remove excess moisture for about 10 minutes.
- Prepare the Dressing: In a large bowl, add all the peanut sauce ingredients: crunchy peanut butter, lime juice, rice vinegar, soy sauce, honey, sesame oil, and minced garlic. Whisk together until smooth and creamy.
- Combine Ingredients: Add the prepared cucumbers, shredded chicken, and sliced green onions to the bowl. Toss everything together gently, ensuring each ingredient is well-coated in the delicious peanut sauce.
- Garnish: Transfer the salad to a serving dish and finish by garnishing with extra green onions, a sprinkle of toasted sesame seeds, and drizzles of chili crisp for that extra kick of flavor.
